ESPN’s playoff machine lends a different result and I tend to favor them, especially over a a fan article.

If you mess with the machine and input the following results:

Cards over Bucs

Panthers over Bucs

Eagles over Saints

Falcons over Cardinals

Saints over Panthers

Falcons over Bucs

The Saints, Panthers, and Falcons all finish 7-10 and the Saints advance.

If you do these results:

Cards over Bucs

Panthers over Bucs

Eagles over Saints

Falcons over Cardinals

Saints over Panthers

Bucs over Falcons

The Panthers advance in a head to head tie over the Saints.

In order to advance next week, the Cards need to close this one out, the Panthers need to win, the Eagles need to win, and the Cardinals need to beat the Falcons.

It doesn’t matter what the falcons do cause the panthers will still have more wins within the division.

this what I've been saying, A lot of things would have to happen for us to not make the playoffs and win next week, but it is possible.  We need to take care of #1, win next week is top priority.

That doesn’t matter if there’s a three team tie…. Not sure what you aren’t understanding about that.

In a three team tie you don’t just eliminate one of the teams, you look at the head to head record among all three teams.

New Orleans would be 3-1 (one loss to the Panthers)

Panthers would be 2-2

Falcons would be 1-3

So yes, the Falcons are mathematically eliminated but they can actually help the Saints if they win their remaining two games and create a three way tie.

    • I personally think Bryce is going to be an extremely good Quarterback for a long time. If you look at modern QB development, it just takes a while. The extreme athletes can get by early, but if you look at the trajectories of guys the last 10 years, were seeing a lot of slow-cooking. Jared Goff, Geno Smith, Baker, Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence. The list is long.  The guys that were truly special from Day 1 is an extremely short list. The list of things that college quarterbacks are responsible for gets shorter by the day with the transfer portal, and the college offenses. The list of things that NFL Quarterbacks are responsible for seems to get longer and longer each season.  I saw an interview the other day in which a rookie quarterback and center were calling plays for the offense.  I can't remember the team or the Quarterback, but I definitely remember the clip. It takes time, even for the smartest and most gifted, and the reality is, we have no idea how good or bad the coaching may be until we hear things we aren't supposed to hear anyway.  Bryce isn't perfect, but I saw in another thread, his biggest struggle is risk/reward. That is something I only expect him to improve upon. His adjustments, ability to read a defense, and execution have been extremely good considering our rosters in his tenure here. Our offensive personnel and coaching were both so poor his rookie year that I'm not sure it's fair to properly evaluate that at all. Since that time, all we've seen from him is growth and progress. 
    • Not really.  The run defense has been solid except for the opening game and New England.  We shut Arizona's run game down, but early turnovers hurt.  And of course, we shut out Atlanta.    
    • True, Bryce having a weaker arm wouldn’t be a big deal if it was paired with… Great accuracy, ball placement, etc. But it’s not.  Bryce has consistently done 2 things all 3 seasons.  One of the lowest completion % in the NFL each year,  one of the highest bad throws % in the NFL.    Then you can get into his unwillingness to stress a D and how that has allowed safeties and DBs  cheat coverage making the small ball so many QBs enjoy a tougher task.
